How much did you pay for your 90g-120g reef ready tank?
 

Hello, just curious as to what a 90g or a 120g all glass or oceanic reef ready tank costs. I am considering upgrading my tank and visited a LFS and they quoted me anywhere from $1800-$2200, and that they would have to order in. This seems a little steep to me, I know i've seen them cheaper. So if anyone could let me know what they spent and where they bought it from, it would be appreciated. Thanks.

Is that with or without Cabinetry/Stand.

that is bare bones just the tank.

i just had a 48x24x28 tank built with center overflow and a sump for $650 here in calgary

we bought a 135 gallon with side overflow and sump for 1100.00 from total pets here in Prince George

If someone local can drill your tank & cut you some small pieces of glass, why don't you DIY the overflow. I had my 65g drilled by Chin Lee, bought the pieces of glass (8" by 4", 8" by 6" & 6" by 4") from Candu Glass in North Burnaby for $10, & siliconed it in myself. Including the bulkhead, & fittings, it was well under $50 to get it plumbed into the sump with PVC piping. Of course the return line & pump is additional, but to get your tank to Reef-ready state, it should be very economical to do it yourself. Also, no grooves are needed on the overflow edge because it's actually quieter with a flat overflow.

JME & JMO.

I got mine at OA for way less than that, give them a call.

Thanks everybody. I have looked into getting a custom tank and may go that route. Its kind of funny that a custom built tank is cheaper than a generic store bought one.

Probably because of your somewhat remote location, a lone store in that area can typically get away with prices like that due to the majority of people not accessing resources like forums.

That is definetly quite steep.

traded my car stereo for it (deck + subs) and paid $25 to have it drilled
